Bound together are pedigrees and memoranda in several early-eighteenth century hands, including notes copied 'out of Penbedw MS' (NLW MS 3075D, p. 90), being transcripts of marginalia from 'Dr Humphreys's Copy' (Brogyntyn I.13, ff. 62 verso-3, 76) (ff. 85-6); a note on Meredith Wynn ap Evan ap Robert and his descendants (see also NLW MSS 27B, pp. 111-114, 16969B, pp. 128-132 and 21253D, ff. 27 verso-28 verso, where 'H.
